AGREEMENT
Buyer's order is accepted upon
and subject to Buyer's assent to the terms stated below, which
Buyer agrees are a complete, final and fully integrated statement
of the agreement (the "Agreement") between Buyer and
Seller. They may not be varied in any way at any time, except by a
further written agreement approved and executed by a specifically
authorized representative of Seller.
1) PRICES AND
PAYMENT: The price of the equipment/product/system will be as
mentioned in the sales Offer. All sales are on as is basis and
payments are due and payable (without offset or deduction) as
follows:
(a) Sales of
Product(s) to buyer: 100% advance upon execution of this
Agreement.
All orders are subject to
approval of Seller’s credit department at time of shipment.
If shipments are delayed due to the actions of Buyer or due to
other conditions beyond Seller's control, payment or pro rata
payment, as the case may be, are due and payable on invoices
issued on or after the date Seller is prepared to make shipment.
If performance of work hereunder is delayed by Buyer, pro rata
payments are due and payable on invoices issued when or at any
time after the delay begins. Product(s) held for Buyer shall be at
Buyer's risk and expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, Seller may require full or partial payment in advance, if
in the judgment of Seller, the financial condition of Buyer at any
time prior to shipment so warrants. In the event of failure of
Buyer to make payments for any instalment of goods when due or
Buyer’s breach of any other provision of this Agreement, Seller
may withhold further delivery until the default has been remedied
or may require that subsequent deliveries be paid for in cash upon
delivery. On overdue accounts, interest shall be charged and
payable on the amount of the unpaid balance at the lower of: (i)
one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month, or (ii) the highest
rate of interest then permitted by law.
To secure payment of all amounts due to Seller hereunder, Buyer
hereby grants Seller a security interest in any and all Products,
Parts, accessories and equipment (and in all proceeds and products
of the foregoing) which may be sold, licensed and/or furnished by
Seller to Buyer hereunder.
2) RISK:
Except as otherwise agreed to in writing, all risk of loss or
damage to the Product(s) or any Part thereof, shall pass to Buyer
and shall become Buyer’s sole responsibility upon Seller’s
completion of delivery to the Buyer’s facility.
3) TITLE:
Except as otherwise agreed to in writing, title to the Product(s)
or any Part thereof, shall pass to Buyer upon the Seller receipt
of Buyer’s final payment equalling 100% of the mutually agreed
upon payment amount due to Seller. The Product(s) or Spare Part(s)
shall be and remain personal or movable property, not withstanding
their mode of attachment to realty or other property.
4) TAXES,
DUTIES AND PERMITS: Seller’s prices neither include any
sales, use, excise, or similar taxes nor any export, import or
other duties. All such duties and taxes are extra and as per laws
of country of buyer and seller.
5) SHIPMENTS:
Shipping dates herein are approximate and are based upon estimated
factory work schedules currently in effect. They are subject to
timely receipt of all necessary materials and supplies from
Seller's vendors, all necessary information and data from Buyer,
priority and scheduling requirements, and other contingencies
beyond Seller's control. The time within which shipment shall be
made hereunder shall include such additional time from the date
herein specified as may be required by reason of non-availability
or shortage of materials, supplies, labor, fuel, power or data, or
by strike, flood, riot, fire, government regulation, explosion,
terrorism, war or other casualty or cause beyond the reasonable
control of Seller.
Seller will use its best efforts within a reasonably practicable
period of time after the occurrence of such condition to notify
Buyer of the nature of the occurrence and the estimated length of
additional time necessary to full this order.
SELLER SHALL NOT IN ANY EVENT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGES OR
EXPENSES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR
INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES OR OTHERWISE,
INCURRED OR SUFFERED BY BUYER OR BUYER’S CUSTOMERS AS A RESULT
OF ANY DELAY IN SHIPMENT OR DELIVERY. Buyer specifically and
explicitly agrees that it has no rights hereunder to claim force
majeure as an exculpating reason for any default on its part.
6) PACKING:
Unless a preferred packing method is provided for elsewhere in the
order, all articles shall be packaged and packed for shipment and
storage in accordance with good commercial practices. Preferred
packing charges shall be paid by Buyer.
7) ACCEPTANCE:
Unless Seller agrees in writing to the contrary, Buyer shall
inspect each Product or Part promptly upon, and in any event
within five (5) days following, delivery. In the event Buyer fails
to notify Seller of any defect, deficiency, omission, or
nonconforming delivery with respect to Products or Parts delivered
to Buyer within ten (10) days following delivery, Buyer shall be
deemed to have unconditionally accepted delivery of such Products
and Parts. If any Product or Part delivered or required to be
delivered by Seller to Buyer shall be defective, omitted, or
otherwise nonconforming, Buyer must deliver a written notice to
Seller within ten (10) days following such nonconforming delivery
by Seller, specifying in such notice the particular defect,
deficiency, omission, or nonconformity upon which Buyer is relying
to justify rejection of delivery. Buyer hereby agrees that such
ten (10) day period is a reasonable period of time after delivery
within which to reject products. Within ten (10) business days
following Seller’s receipt of Buyer's written notice of
rejection with respect to Products or Parts sold or licensed
hereunder, Seller may notify Buyer in writing of Seller's
intention to cure any such defective or nonconforming goods, and
Seller shall have a reasonable period of time thereafter within
which to make a conforming delivery or to otherwise correct or
remedy the specific condition upon which Buyer is then relying in
rejecting the Products or Parts. Any rejection properly made by
Buyer shall apply only to nonconforming goods, and Buyer is
required to complete its purchase of all other Products and Parts
pursuant to any and all Purchase Orders between Buyer and Seller,
strictly in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof.
8) WARRANTIES:
The seller does offer 16 months of warranty on the Broadsound
product(s).
9) RETURNS:
No returns are accepted for this product, except
any malfunctions during warranty period.
10) REMEDIES:
If Buyer shall fail to make payments in accordance with the prices
and terms specified herein, or be delinquent in any other payment
owing to Seller, or if Buyer's financial condition at any time
does not, in Seller's judgment, justify continuance of work or
shipments on the original terms of payment specified herein,
Seller may, in addition to all other remedies, require payment in
advance for any further work or shipments hereunder or may
terminate this Agreement. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency
of Buyer or any proceedings brought by or against Buyer under the
Bankruptcy or insolvency laws, Seller at its option may cancel any
order that is outstanding from Buyer. If default is made in any of
the payments herein, Buyer agrees that Seller may retain all
payments that have been made on account of the purchase price up
to 20% of the purchase price, as liquidated damages. Seller shall
also be entitled to the immediate possession of the Product(s) or
Spare Part(s) without prejudice to Seller's right to recover any
expenses or damages Seller may suffer by reason of such
non-payment. Buyer acknowledges that any waiver on Seller’s part
of any one default in performance under this agreement shall not
be considered a waiver of any other such default.
11) GENERAL:
Orders may not be assigned without the prior written consent of
Seller. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and no
waiver, alteration or modification of any provision thereof shall
be binding unless in writing and signed by an authorized
representative of Seller. If any portion or clause of this
Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable as to any person or
under any circumstances, the invalidity or lack of application
shall not impair or affect the other provisions and the
application of those provisions which can be given effect without
the invalid or unenforceable provision or application. With this
intention, the provisions of this agreement are declared to be
severable. All notices from one party to the other shall be in
writing and shall be delivered in person, by facsimile, or sent by
U.S. Registered Mail to each party at the address indicated
herein, or at any other, upon notification of the change of
address to the other in accordance with this provision. Notice
delivered personally shall be deemed received upon delivery.
Notice delivered by facsimile shall be deemed received upon
delivery, provided that the original copy of such notice, properly
executed by the sender (if required) shall be sent by U.S. Mail,
postage prepaid, and received by the addressee within three (3)
business days after delivery of the facsimile copy. Notice
delivered by registered or certified mail shall be deemed received
on the third (3rd) business day after posting.
12) RESOLUTION
OF DISPUTES: Each party hereby consents to and confers
exclusive jurisdiction to enforce any of the rights or obligations
under this Agreement or to resolve any dispute arising out of or
in connection with this Agreement, or the transactions
contemplated herein, under Swiss juridiction.
